Rat/mouse problem

[Major Kong]

Toxoplasmosis, one more thing to get you. I guess Covid is no longer big news.
Centuries from now when mankind is no longer on this planet. Alien anthropologists will land here and study our fossilized remains. Reactivate old data chips. Really get into our business.
When they file their final report it will start with this headline:
Another extinct Industrial race found on a beautiful planet.
As we’ve seen on other worlds they fell prey to the Stupid Virus.
Still no intelligent life found anywhere. We are still alone.

First off should a rat/mouse be able to get into the car? I feel like it’s a manufacturing defect that should be covered they are destroying my beautiful new Bronco what should I do??

Get a car cat. Same principle as a barn cat. Just make sure you leave it food, water, and a litter box.

We had a 1997 Ford Ranger parked outside. 2WD so I did not drive it with snow on the ground. One spring I started it and it quickly died. It would not restart so I did the "spark, fuel, air" test. When I opened the air cleaner it was a well chewed mouse nest. By starting the engine it ingested nest materials of grass and air cleaner. I squirted gasoline in the carb, and it started, only to die again. Several repetitions got it to run and a quick run on the highway at high RPM's cleaned out the residue. No problems after replacing the air filter.

slight nip to the air
primordial instincts say nest somewhere warm
surveillance reports activity
been tracking this individual for days
signs were all there
beer caps folded in half
partially eaten peanut butter sandwich
tracks circled back around
oddly enough looking vaguely familiar
anyways
the Fall season campaign has been activated
monitored closely
first prisoner of war released today

Chip
you have been spared
leniency has been granted
go now
tell the others what has occurred here today

I'm waiting for the escalation. Squirrel heads on spikes?

I try to teach them life skills after I catch them. Did I mention I suck as a swimming instructor?

Have no idea what that meant...but, if I did, I would definitely agree.?

Chipmunk headstones maybe........... ?

Chipmunk headstones maybe........... ?

Something tells me waterboarding might be necessary...but I doubt it would be effective.?
